Simpson and Szacinski were listed as the No. 33 doubles pair in the nation after the duo compiled a 4-1 record in the fall, including a 3-0 mark en route to winning the doubles title at the Conference Challenge hosted by Texas A&M in October.

In the Southern region rankings, Simpson and Szacinski ranked No. 4 while fellow Tigers Roger Anderson and Tam Trinh checked in as the 10th-ranked doubles pair.

LSU will take part in the Key Biscayne Collegiate Invitational Sunday through Tuesday and will officially open the dual season on Jan. 21 in a 1 p.m. CT tilt against Southern Miss at Dub Robinson Stadium.
